7 # the shmem_readpage() which depends upon tmpfs
11 # i915 depends on ACPI_VIDEO when ACPI is enabled
12 # but for select to work, need to select ACPI_VIDEO's dependencies, ick
13 select BACKLIGHT_LCD_SUPPORT if ACPI
14 select BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE if ACPI
15 select VIDEO_OUTPUT_CONTROL if ACPI
17 select ACPI_VIDEO if ACPI
18 select ACPI_BUTTON if ACPI
20 Choose this option if you have a system that has "Intel Graphics
21 Media Accelerator" or "HD Graphics" integrated graphics,
22 including 830M, 845G, 852GM, 855GM, 865G, 915G, 945G, 965G,
23 G35, G41, G43, G45 chipsets and Celeron, Pentium, Core i3,
24 Core i5, Core i7 as well as Atom CPUs with integrated graphics.
25 If M is selected, the module will be called i915. AGP support
26 is required for this driver to work. This driver is used by
27 the Intel driver in X.org 6.8 and XFree86 4.4 and above. It
28 replaces the older i830 module that supported a subset of the
29 hardware in older X.org releases.
31 Note that the older i810/i815 chipsets require the use of the
32 i810 driver instead, and the Atom z5xx series has an entirely
33 different implementation.
36 bool "Enable modesetting on intel by default"
39 Choose this option if you want kernel modesetting enabled by default,
40 and you have a new enough userspace to support this. Running old
41 userspaces with this enabled will cause pain. Note that this causes
42 the driver to bind to PCI devices, which precludes loading things
46 bool "Enable legacy fbdev support for the modesettting intel driver"
48 select DRM_KMS_FB_HELPER
49 select FB_CFB_FILLRECT
50 select FB_CFB_COPYAREA
51 select FB_CFB_IMAGEBLIT
54 Choose this option if you have a need for the legacy fbdev
55 support. Note that this support also provide the linux console
56 support on top of the intel modesetting driver.
58 config DRM_I915_PRELIMINARY_HW_SUPPORT
59 bool "Enable preliminary support for prerelease Intel hardware by default"
62 Choose this option if you have prerelease Intel hardware and want the
63 i915 driver to support it by default. You can enable such support at
64 runtime with the module option i915.preliminary_hw_support=1; this
65 option changes the default for that module option.
